Was ist ein typischer Arbeiter? Stereotype über soziale Schichten

Akteure nehmen in Interaktionen immer wieder soziale Kategorisierungen von anderen Personen vor und aktivieren die entsprechenden Stereotypen über diese Kategorien. Sowohl in der Sozialpsychologie als auch in der Soziologie fokussiert allerdings die Forschung auf die Untersuchung askriptiver Sozialkategorien, während Konzepte wie Klasse und Schicht weitgehend ausgeblendet bleiben. In diesem Aufsatz wird argumentiert, dass diese Kategorien in der Bevölkerung weithin bekannt und mental zugänglich sind sowie in entsprechenden Situationen auch aktiviert werden. Damit sind sie auch für die Orientierung in alltäglichen Interaktionssituationen relevant. Auf der Grundlage einer Onlineumfrage wird demonstriert, dass die Stereotypkontraste zwischen verschiedenen sozialen Schichten vor allem durch sozioökonomische Merkmale sowie durch hochkulturelle Lebensstilmerkmale bestimmt werden, während Persönlichkeitsmerkmale eine geringere Bedeutung aufweisen

Search for top squarks in the four-body decay mode with single lepton final states in proton-proton collisions at s= \sqrt{s}= 13 TeV

A search for the pair production of the lightest supersymmetric partner of the top quark, the top squark ($\tilde{\mathrm{t}}_{1}$), is presented. The search targets the four-body decay of the $\tilde{\mathrm{t}}_{1}$, which is preferred when the mass difference between the top squark and the lightest supersymmetric particle is smaller than the mass of the W boson. This decay mode consists of a bottom quark, two other fermions, and the lightest neutralino ($\tilde{\chi}_{1}^{0}$), which is assumed to be the lightest supersymmetric particle. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. Events are selected using the presence of a high-momentum jet, an electron or muon with low transverse momentum, and a significant missing transverse momentum. The signal is selected based on a multivariate approach that is optimized for the difference between $m(\tilde{\mathrm{t}}_{1})$ and $m(\tilde{\chi}_{1}^{0})$. The contribution from leading background processes is estimated from data. No significant excess is observed above the expectation from standard model processes. The results of this search exclude top squarks at 95% confidence level for masses up to 480 and 700 GeV for $m(\tilde{\mathrm{t}}_{1}) - m(\tilde{\chi}_{1}^{0}) =$ 10 and 80 GeV, respectively.A search for the pair production of the lightest supersymmetric partner of the top quark, the top squark (${\overset{\sim }{\textrm{t}}}_1$), is presented.

Search for Higgs Boson and Observation of Z Boson through their Decay into a Charm Quark-Antiquark Pair in Boosted Topologies in Proton-Proton Collisions at s\sqrt{s} =13 TeV

A search for the standard model (SM) Higgs boson (H) produced with transverse momentum greater than 450 GeV and decaying to a charm quark-antiquark ($\mathrm{c\bar{c}}$) pair is presented. The search is performed using proton-proton collision data collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. Boosted H $\to$$\mathrm{c\bar{c}}$ decay products are reconstructed as a single large-radius jet and identified using a deep neural network charm tagging technique. The method is validated by measuring the Z $\to$$\mathrm{c\bar{c}}$ decay process, which is observed in association with jets at high $p_\mathrm{T}$ for the first time with a signal strength of 1.00 $_{-0.14}^{+0.17}$ (syst) $\pm$ 0.08 (theo) $\pm$ 0.06 (stat), defined as the ratio of the observed process rate to the standard model expectation. The observed (expected) upper limit on $\sigma$(H) $\mathcal{B}$(H $\to$$\mathrm{c\bar{c}}$) is set at 47 (39) times the SM prediction at 95% confidence level

Azimuthal anisotropy of dijet events in PbPb collisions at sNN \sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}} = 5.02 TeV

AbstractThe path-length dependent parton energy loss within the dense partonic medium created in lead-lead collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV is studied by determining the azimuthal anisotropies for dijets with high transverse momentum. The data were collected by the CMS experiment in 2018 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1.69 nb$^{−1}$. For events containing back-to-back jets, correlations in relative azimuthal angle and pseudorapidity (η) between jets and hadrons, and between two hadrons, are constructed. The anisotropies are expressed as the Fourier expansion coefficients v$_{n}$, n = 2–4 of these azimuthal distributions. The dijet v$_{n}$ values are extracted from long-range (1.5 < |∆η| < 2.5) components of these correlations, which suppresses the background contributions from jet fragmentation processes. Positive dijet v$_{2}$ values are observed which increase from central to more peripheral events, while the v$_{3}$ and v$_{4}$ values are consistent with zero within experimental uncertainties.[graphic not available: see fulltext
